Only USD or RMB Currency will be accepted. CEDIA reserves the right to restrict delivery of freight at show site until final payment has been received without CEDIA or its contractors incurring any liability whatsoever. We may accept late payments, partial payments, or any cheques or money orders marked as being payment in full or as being a settlement of any dispute without losing any of our rights under this Contract or under the law. Accepting such payments does not mean CEDIA has changed this Contract in any way. Exhibitors who submit payments that are returned unpaid by their banks will be placed on a cash basis. Cancellation by the Exhibitors – It is further agreed that actual occupancy of the space reserved by the Exhibitor is of the essence hereof. If the Exhibitor does not occupy the space by 4:00PM (local time—Shanghai), Tuesday 6 November 2012, CEDIA may occupy or cause said space to be occupied as it may deem best in the interest of CEDIA without in any way releasing the exhibitor from any liability hereunder. Furthermore, if the Exhibitor does not occupy/staff the space, all rights of a CEDIA exhibitor will be revoked. Both the Exhibitor and CEDIA acknowledge that CEDIA will sustain certain losses if the Exhibitor cancels its Exhibit Space Contract after it has been assigned space. Even though CEDIA will exercise its best efforts to resell the cancelled space, the parties agree that CEDIA nevertheless incur substantial losses that cannot be precisely determined. Due to the difficulty of determining and providing said losses, the Exhibitor agrees to pay the following amounts as liquidated damages in the event that the Exhibitor cancels its exhibit space on or within the time periods specified below. All cancellations must be submitted in writing and liquidated damages will be determined as follows: No refund of the deposit will be given. No refunds will be provided for cancellations received on contracts dated after close of business Monday 8 October 2012. No refund will be provided for cancellations if the space is not rented to another exhibitor regardless of date of notice. Non-refund deposits and payments are not applicable toward payment for space at future shows.

Cancellation by CEDIA – Exhibitor’s space may be cancelled by CEDIA for failure to pay balance when due. In the event space is cancelled by CEDIA, all prior payments on account will not be returned and CEDIA may lease such cancelled space to another exhibitor at its discretion. It is the policy of CEDIA to limit exhibit space rental to suppliers of products and services used by Residential Electronic Systems Professionals, Builders, Architects, or Designers.

Exhibitors shall confine their displays to products which are: 1) regularly manufactured by them, or 2) sold exclusively by them, or 3) custom made for them and not exhibited by the original manufacturer, or 4) working components in a display of a system sold by them.
